Re: Soapbox: If You Thought Last Year Was "Sad" For Switch, 2023 Might Be Hard To Handle

Realness

I went with “a pretty good spread” but, I am sick of dealing with the Switch’s power output. Or lack thereof. I have a Series X, a PS5 and a Switch, all hooked up to a 75” QNED. When I “switch” between them to play different games, the visual downgrade is eye watering. I mean that literally. My eyes water. Choppy frame rates and barely HD graphics make me sad. And then, even sadder, when I know that Nintendo will do nothing about it. Sorry Nintendo, graphics DO matter. Bayonetta 3 is currently suffering for it. If they could manage to get their next system to be on par with PS4 Pro or One X, I’ll shut up. Until then, my Switch is getting the side eye treatment.

Re: A New Bayonetta 3 Report Features A Differing Account Of PlatinumGames VA Pay Offer

Realness

If the report is true, then it seems as though Ms Taylor was banking (no pun intended) on the idea, that she IS Bayonetta and because of that, Platinum would pay it. No matter how outlandish the amount. And if that was her game plan going in, she blew it. This seems to me, like she was given bad advice on how to handle it… maybe. Also, her plan backfired. Bayonetta is all over the place now and more people are now interested in it. Good job???

Re: Talking Point: Given The Voice Artist Controversy, Will You Be Boycotting Bayonetta 3?

Realness

I’m torn. Now, I agree with Helena that how the money side of things, ain’t quite what it needs to be. BUT, I also think asking fans to boycott is a mistake. The reason is, if we do boycott in mass and Bayonetta doesn’t turn a profit, then we can all say goodbye to our favorite Umbra Witch forever. Nobody wins. Now, she did do the right thing by calling them out, but the boycott rally cry is a step too far. If she had left that part out, it would’ve left room for reconciliation in the future. This particular course of action, pretty much guarantees that this role will never be hers again. Especially if Kamiya has anything to say about it… and I’m sure he does.
And, after writing all that, yes I will be picking up Bayonetta 3. I’m not done with her yet and I want her to continue on. Boycotting will put her back in her coffin for another 500 years and I can’t wait that long.
